Sad story. In 2007, Russell Bramlage killed his parents, Dr. Terry Bramlage and Lynda Bramlage, after they confronted him when he stole two cheques from them. Shot them both in the back, with a shotgun, in cold blood. Three days after the murders, seemingly without a care in the world, he cashed one of the cheques in and bought...an original Xbox. Bramlage was later arrested by police, and pleaded guilty to murder charges, for which he'll face up to 20 years in prison without parole.

20 years for murdering his kin. Then he goes and buy and old time xbox. I bet his fancy lawyer is going to argue that he is mentally insane.

That's more than slightly disturbing. Not the Xbox part but the fact that 3 days later he was still on his own after that. Did someone not notice?

It's like something out A Thousand and One Nights where the King is killing virgins off for three years before anyone decides it might be a good idea to move their daughters out of town.

You say that like if it were a next-gen console, it would somehow be more acceptable.

Obviously violent videogames caused him to do this. Most likely it was Doom, since that's the game that always gets blamed for these sorts of things, despite being old as ****.

This is worse than the Halo-kid story and here we are just laughing at the fact he didn't steal a PS3. He killed 4 people from what I count and you people just laugh that people just died. And what I don't get is why he isn't on the Death Row. One murder is 20 years and he gets a 20 year WTF is going in here?

Why didnt he just ask his parents for money?

Original Xbox? How much was it? $50? Come on...

I think he has mental issues, more than anything.

Yes it is a very sad story but sad things like this happen everyday and us getting down about it isn't going to stop it. It's best just to stay positive and don't think about it too seriously.

I totally agree. We should get a shotgun and kill him, who gives a **** if hes a minor? I dont get it these days. A kid would kill his grandma, and the lawyers would be like "Hes just a kid!" then the jury is like, **** the worlds ****ed up enough already, it wouldnt matter if we let him go." And off he goes. HANG THAT ****ER!!!
